Aprašymas

A vivid account of a boomer's life in the driver's seat.

Gear up for a motorized journey through post-World War II America! Blending history and personal memoir, Larry Lankton pays homage to the automobile, arguably the most important technological object of twentieth-century America. The omnipresence of cars shaped popular culture during the Golden Age of American prosperity and featured prominently in Lankton's own coming-of-age memories of family life and teenage (mis)adventures--especially his 1964 GTO. Told in incredible detail, Lankton's recollections and his attention to the historical impact of the car industry of the 1950s and 1960s demonstrate how much boomers, and the generations that follow, owe to the American automobile.
